After a CV revamp with City CV I actually got offered two jobs interviews within the space of a week. Looking back at my old CV I am amazed at how drab and boring it looks!


I used Victoria when applying for a 6 figure Senior Marketing Manager position within a global company.  Having transformed my CV and letter of application she then took me through some fairly rigorous interview practice before both first and second interviews.  Many of the questions she prepped me for actually came up and I knew exactly what they wanted to hear.  I could not have been better prepared - I landed the job, increasing my earnings by 30k per annum and taking my career to another level.


I feel very fortunate for receiving excellent career advice from Vicky. This included helping me to rewrite my CV. I found her professional, helpful and realistic approach a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend her to anyone needing support and direction.


I can’t thank you enough for turning my fortunes around. I got the job! Who would have thought I would make the transition to corporate London life so easily. I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you again for the brilliant job you did on reworking my CV and for all the great interview practice you gave me. I owe you a drink.


I was applying for a high profile position. Victoria reviewed my CV and advised me how to improve it. Her approach was tremendously professional and I was really impressed with her eye for detail and her very personal touch.


I have some good news - I received a full time offer from XXX (renowned global investment bank) and will be starting there at the end of June. I'm very much looking forward to it. Your coaching was very helpful - Every single interview I did was successful. That is, I progressed to the next stage or received an offer. After I received the XXX offer I cancelled everything else. But I very much appreciate your advice, because I walked in completely prepared.


Victoria provided invaluable and totally objective advice with regards to my career progression. Her wealth of experience and diplomatic approach means that her service is truly consultative and collaborative. She took time to understand my aspirations and tailored her advice accordingly, always on hand to offer ongoing support. Victoria made the process of securing a new and exciting role extremely painless and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her or using her services going forward.


It had been five years since I had applied for a job, so I turned to Victoria for help. She guided me through every stage of the daunting task, starting with putting my CV together - which did the trick as I was invited for an interview! Victoria then coached me through the two stage interview process using a variety of techniques which we practiced until I was confident. It paid off as I was offered the job. To optimise your chances of bagging your dream role, contact Victoria.


The help and advice I received in updating my CV was brilliant. My CV now looks professional and I have gained at least 3 interviews from this and a job offer. Did not take this new role though, as I have been promoted at my current company! I will definitely approach Vicky for future help and advice as I found it very beneficial.


Thank you for all of your support with revamping my CV. Your help was invaluable not only in delivering a great CV but in helping me to think about my own achievements and giving me extra confidence.


I always thought my CV and interview technique was quite good, but after Victoria totally revamped them I realised I was definitely in need of some changes. We did coaching sessions on everything from the competency interview to the group exercises and numerical & technical skills. I felt so prepared on my interview day that I actually really enjoyed it rather than feeling nervous and stressed like I normally do. To top it off I received an offer for the job and the interviewer remarked what a professional CV I had compared to many he had seen. Thanks Victoria


Thank you for all your assistance and patience in helping me on my search for a new job.  From the tailoring of the CV to the interview training you were thorough and honest. Without it, I wouldn’t have been as prepared or as confident as I was. I got the job and a 50% pay increase to boot! Thank you, I couldn’t have got this job without you.


A combination of the CV and interview advice, not only successfully landed my desired position but came with a significantly higher salary than originally expected.


Thank you for all your help. The interview coaching you gave me was amazing.  I felt so prepared and confident. The answering techniques we practised really do work. Even better, they asked me some of the questions we had run through, I had my examples ready and knew exactly what to say.  I now have a new job on the Emerging Markets desk.  Thank you!


Many, many thanks! Your help, advice, wisdom, coaching and willingness to keep helping me has really impressed me, and I am truly grateful. This is a fantastic CV and a HUGE improvement over the one I had. I have showed this new version to a few friends and they all agree it looks great and is a massive improvement. I also needed some help to understand the ways of the British as things back in California, etc. are a bit more wild, creative and colorful on the CV front I think! When in Rome.... Thanks again, you have really helped me immensely. I am very, very pleased.


Many thanks. The CV looks great, and I am very pleased with your services! City CV will definitely be recommended.


I went to City CV for help after being rejected at the interview stages of 3-4 different graduate jobs. After one session with Victoria, and one session from Tony, not only was I much better prepared to answer competency questions but my confidence had been restored. On the day of the interview every question asked by the interviewer we had covered the previous day and I found out 2 hours later that I had successfully got the job! I would recommend City CV to any of my friends!


Hi Victoria, thanks for all your help, the CV is superb.


After ten years of tacking things on to the end of my old CV I realised the time had come to do a complete overhaul. I thought it would only take a couple of hours but every time I started I would get a mental block, I would sit there staring at the flashing cursor. I contacted City CV and with probing and prompting, they were able to help me remember and focus on what was important. They put a CV framework together with all the information and I now have a CV I am proud of. The turnaround time was quick and the quality tip-top. Thanks City CV.


In just a couple of phone conversations Victoria was able to extract enough information to write a fantastic CV from scratch. This for a career spanning 10+ years is no small feat! Extremely helpful with a high quality product, I would highly recommend Victoria and City CV


After long hours of stressing over the content & structure of my cv I was referred to Victoria @ City CV by another satisfied client, following a detailed telephone interview to discuss my background, present circumstances and career progression Victoria was able to put together a framework showcasing my professional and work achievements to date and clearly summarising my value add to prospective employers - I am happy with this body of work and confident about prospects for the future
